` IMPROVEMENT IN SAW-MILLS.

l l The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.

VTo all whom it may conceru.-`y

Be it known that I, GEORGE H, SHEAREaof Bay City, in the county of Bay, and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Saw-Mills, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference heilig had to the accompanying drawing, makin g part of this specification, in whichi Figure l is a iont view of my improvement;

Eignre 2' is a real-'view of the same;I

Figure 3 is a side or edge view of the same; and

Figure 4 is a detached view of the removable part `of the jamb or fender, and also of thermortise into which it is fitted.4

Similar letters of reference indicate similar parts iu all the figures. f

The invention consists of a` novel construction of the jambs or fender-posts of a saw-mill, whereby ready access muy be had to the bearing-blocks of noddlei pins or cross-heads, for the purpose ot' Vadjusting or replacing them, as will be readily understood from the following description. I

A represents an aperture or mortise, lextending eutirelythrough the jamb, at a point traversed bythe cross-head or slide.A

B is a cap, providedwith a tenen, fitting closely to the mortise A, and of such length that it will just reach through the jamb, forming a smooth, or nearly smooth surface upon its inner side.

This cap or block is secured in its place by means of `the bar F, which passes through the`perforat'ed by removing the back D and cap B, the bearing-blocks in the ends of the noddle-pin or cross-head may be reached without disturbing the working-parts of the mill. 1

Having thus described my improvement, That I claim as new, and wish to secure by Letters Patent, is

1.y The construction of the jambs or ways, or both,

of a saw-mill, in such manner that access may be had to the bearing-ends of the noddle-pin or crossfhead without Iremoving or looseningv said noddle, or either side of the ways in which it moves.

2. The jambs o1' ways of a saw-mill, provided with mortises or pertbralions, for the purpose set forth.

3. The removable back D, in combination with the sides OO, operating as set forth.

4. The cap B, Ain combination with the jamb A. W'itnesses: GEORGE H. SHEARER.
